And all you computer guys, engineers, day-traders, fashionistas, garbage men, landscapers, sales people, car mechanics, etc. are all on notice for being too worldly.

Btw, Nee took his political views from Darby. Perhaps the exclusives posted spies at the polling booths to see if any of their members had become "worldly." I read what Nee taught on politics, and I am shocked at the poor teachings supposedly supported by scripture. Think of his logic: The Lord Jesus was not a politician, so neither should we be. But the Lord was neither in pharmaceuticals like Nee was. Didn't he know that "pharma," the root word for pharmaceuticals, is the Greek word for demons?
Good points bro Ohio. Nee was so against government that he didn't pay 'em taxes (didn't render to Caesar). That got him arrested. Then he relented toward government ... and changed his mind, to get a lighter sentence ... and admitted many more sins toward those efforts ... damaging many, and his ministry, in the process. Martyr my behind. Witness Lee go tell it to those who don't know you, or Nee.

Should we trust Nee, or Lee, about anything?
